Overview
The node acts as a personal Telegram assistant, enabling interaction with the Telegram API to perform various user-related operations. Specifically for the "User" resource and the "Get User" operation, it retrieves detailed information about a Telegram user by their user ID. This is useful in scenarios where you need to fetch user profile data, verify user identities, or gather user details for further processing within an automation workflow.
Practical examples include:
- Fetching user details to personalize messages or notifications.
- Retrieving user info to log or audit interactions.
- Using user data to manage contacts or chats programmatically.
